2015 was a breakout season for Ellis who played every single position along Kansas City's back line due to injuries and call ups throughout the season. Originally mainly a back up, Ellis' main contribution last year was at center back where he partnered with basically every other healthy center back on the roster. From Matt Besler to Erik Palmer-Brown. His contribution was quite underrated by most fans last year, but Ellis came through and was a huge help to Kansas City throughout the season. His return will certainly help Kansas City in the 2015 season.

Really liked his effort last season. Had a stretch of a few games where he was brilliant, lights out defensively. Hoping he only gets better. We need him. I don't trust half our CB options as they are right now, injuries and overall class what have you, and I don't believe EPB is close to featuring for us. Gonna miss the AC78 from the jump...
